IPv6 on Aussiebroadband with EdgeRouter

Jan 7, 2019

I have had an EdgeRouter for years, and recently got moved onto the nbn™. Aussiebroadband seemed to be a good choice for me, being referred to as the “new iiNet” on the forums. I figured I should give them a try.

One thing I noticed when in the days before signing up was that there is an IPv6 beta. Naturally, I immediately signed up. This post is an explanation of how to get IPv6 working on your EdgeRouter.

Firewall

These rules stop connections to devices behind the router. ICMP is important to allow connection management in IPv6, so needs to be allowed through the firewall.
